Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Wood floor repair in Grafham, done in place

Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. We work on engineered wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and solid wood, and people most often call us about gouges from moving appliances and scratches from furniture and pets.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills straight away.

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Surrey and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

How to get a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Questions from Grafham

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

What we cannot put right

We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Laminate swollen along the joints by water
  • Boards that have lifted or warped
  • Underfloor damage

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

  • Engineered wood
  • Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
  • Solid wood
  • Laminate flooring

  • Chipped board edges
  • Gouges from moving appliances
  • Burns
  • Dents from dropped items

What your quote should include

  • What preparation is included
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

How to compare quotes

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Access to the area
  • The material
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
